Australian receives death sentence for killing Hells Angel in Thailand

The British Telegraph is reporting that "a 28-year-old Australian man has been sentenced to death in Thailand for the murder of an Australian Hell’s Angel motorcycle gang member at a coastal resort town. A Thai court found Antonio Bagnato, a kickboxer, killed Australian underworld figure Wayne Schneider after kidnapping him from outside his luxury villa complex in Pattaya, south-east of Bangkok. He and Bagnato were former partners in a Sydney boxing gym and were reportedly under investigation in Australia over international drug deals. Bagnato had previously been the dead man’s bodyguard."

The Daily Record is reporting that it was a former member of the Hells Angels. "Wayne Schneider fell out with Hells Angels members in Australia and fled to Thailand only to be killed by drug dealer Antonio Bagnato." AFFA. Angels Forever Forever Angels or until we decide to put cap in your ass. With friends like that, who needs enemies?

The Daily Telegraph is reporting that Wayne Schneider was the full patch Australian Hells Angel who oversaw a puppet club called DLASTHR which was founded by Hells Angels associate Raphael Joseph. They were involved with a multimillion dollar drug ring in Thailand. Raphael was also killed by someone he knew.

More treatment, less enabling needed in battle against B.C.’s drug problem

The Vancouver Province ran an excellent article by Gordon Clark entitled More treatment, less enabling needed in battle against B.C.’s drug problem. He states "having compassion for those in the grips of addiction doesn’t mean we should, as a society, normalize such self-destructive behaviour - with the damage rippling out to addicts’ family and friends - by pretending that a drug user is just another patient in need of medical care."

"Nor do I support ever-increasing expensive government-funded programs to enable people to self-harm by taking more drugs, especially without enough aggressive programs to help them get clean. If you want to spend tax dollars on addicts, I’d rather see it go toward detox and recovery programs instead of more needle exchanges, safe-injection sites, and new ways to keep addicts hooked, like recent proposals to give out free heroin."

Exactly. We need more reality and less enabling. "Enablers are people who help facilitate a person’s addictions by removing the natural consequences of addictive behaviors. Enablers are not necessarily direct supporters of addiction, but rather sustain a person’s addiction by eliminating incentives for change. "

More money for fentanyl Fraud

In contrast, the BC government is doing the exact opposite. Instead of providing funding for treatment to help addicts get get off drugs they are pouring tax dollars in to harm promotion under the guise of saving lives when in reality they are doing the exact opposite and are perpetuating the fentanyl fraud as a result. Calgary fentanyl numbers - harm promotion is not working.

Facing the Storm: Looking Beyond the Left and Right

There has been such a bizarre whirlwind of hate and intolerance and such a heartwarming response to it that I thought I'd make a few simple clarifications on a point of order so that we are all on the same page. Those who have a problem with that are free to turn the page and move on elsewhere. This is not a Hells Angels support group.

I most certainly do believe in free speech. If someone wants to spam the internet with their opinion about how wonderful the Hells Angels are, they are free to do so. Just not on my blog. This is the wrong place for that. The internet is full of Hells Angles support sites. This is not one of them. This is a small corner of cyberspace devoted to the alternate view.

This blog does not support Hillary Clinton. As far as I'm concerned she is a dirty criminal who has been deeply involved with arms dealing, money laundering and drug trafficking for a generation ever since Mena, Arkansas. Initially I had huge concerns with Donald Trump winning the nomination for the Republican Party. His beef with the CIA was a good thing. My concern was with his racism and intolerance. Time has already shown that those concerns are and were valid.

I am not going to approve comments that hate on Muslims, Jews, Catholics or anyone else. I do not support Donald Trump's recent executive order on immigration. It is not because I have been brainwashed by the main stream media. It is simply because I disagree with it. I totally agree that the Americans are free to ban whoever they want from visiting their country. I will simply say that is not the type of society I want to live in and that is not the type of society the Constitution was framed to create. That's all there is to it.

I attended a candlelight vigil at a mosque in Vancouver where a Jewish Rabbi spoke in support of religious freedom and tolerance. I totally support that. There are extremists in every religion, trade union or political party under the sun. There is good and bad everywhere you go.

Donald Trump has completely lost my support. When he was beefing with the CIA I saw that as an opportunity for him to do something positive. Unfortunately he dropped the ball and steamrolled ahead right into their false flag agenda of hate and intolerance rationalizing the destruction of civil liberty and the US Constitution. Donald Trump is a prick and I don't mean that in a nice way. I set up a twitter account and started following him. Every post he keeps making over and over again is racist, arrogant and negative. I finally had to unsubscribe to that toxic waste because it was too much for me to stomach.

Initially I tried to rationalize Trump's election by stating not everyone that voted for him are racist. Evidently many are and I cannot support that. Some claim the executive order isn't racist but it is. Former Mayor Giuliani came right out and said Donald Trump came to him wanting a Muslim ban and asked him how they could do it legally so this is what they came up with. They picked seven countries that were predominately Muslim and went from there. Trailrunner says Muslims are the problem, its a cultural thing. He's going to have to post that perpetual hate somewhere else as is anyone else who wants to promote Trumps racism. This is not the place for that.

There are tons of neoNaazi whitesupremecists sites out there. This is not one of them. You guys are going to have to dance with your white sheets over your head somewhere else. All I can say is that I'll see you on the other side. Not the way Ozzy Osbourn meant but they way they meant in the song Some Nights except I know exactly what I stand for. I'll see you on the other side of the battle field because the freedom of religion is what wars are fought over and you are on the wrong side of that war. As the brother form Boston said, who on earth would want a union with a group of people who fought a war for the right to keep slaves? Not me.

Botched US Raid in Yemen killed civilians again

CBC is reporting that The U.S. military says it is investigating last weekend's raid by U.S. special operations forces in Yemen and that innocent civilians, including children, were apparently killed. So here we have US soldiers launching an attack in a foreign country and engage in a firefight with a group of "terrorists" that they themselves armed killing numerous civilians again.

Donald Trump is a raging lunatic that needs to spend some time with Dr. Phil. I do not support him. He had a wonderful opportunity to address some of the real problems surrounding the CIA's arms dealing and drug trafficking network. Instead he dropped the ball and ran the other direction launching a full scale assault on the US Constitution. That is shameful.

This attack had nothing to do with confronting terrorists. It was once again choosing sides in a civil war just like in Syria only this time it was defending Saudi interests. Buyer Beware.

Vancouver Rally against Islamophobia

We attended a candlelight vigil at a Mosque in Vancouver tonight in response to the outrageous act of hate and violence displayed at the Quebec shooting. The place was packed. They let people in and it filled up pretty quick with tons of people still outside in the snow.



You can see the mound of shoes outside from all the people that went in beside some of the flowers people brought from all different faiths. One lone wolf commits a senseless act of violence and thousands more come out in support in cities across the country.



There was a First Nations sister that played her drum outside and sang a traveling song for those who have passed on and are traveling to the other side. It was very nice.



The spiritual leader from the Mosque spoke about the golden rule and wanted to make sure the guests from other faiths were allowed to speak. He invited his friend who was a Jewish Rabbi to speak who blew a rams horn as a wake up call to arms in support of religious freedom.



So that candlelight vigil and the warning from the rams horn did indeed spark an awakening. The rally then moved to the Olympic Caldron which was relight in memory of those recently slain in Quebec. Vancouver speaks out against Islamophobia. This is my home. Today I am proud to be Canadian and proud to be from Vancouver. This is the kind of society I choose to live in. Peace.





The Toronto Star is reporting that a group of Toronto-based Jewish organizations is leading an interfaith effort to express support for Canada’s Muslim community on Friday. A local rabbi has galvanized synagogues and organized groups throughout the city to form “rings of peace” around mosques during Islamic mid-day prayer services.

Nicky Jam marries Angélica Cruz in Medellin, Vin Diesel is his Best Man

The Daily UK is reporting that Latin singer Nicky Jam weds Angélica Cruz in Colombia and Vin Diesel declares it 'the best wedding I've ever been to'. Nicky Jam is from Puerto Rico but lives in Columbia and made a recent appearance on the big screen with Vin Diesel. in the Return of Xander Cage. The Americanos - In My Foreign. Brothers in the hood.

Little Italy bar in Toronto closed after gang rape

CBC is reporting that "College Street Bar will remain closed until May and the two men accused of forcibly confining and sexually assaulting a woman there are banned from the premises, the city says. Toronto police said a 24-year-old woman was allegedly held inside the bar from the evening of Dec. 14 until the early morning hours of Dec. 15 and sexually assaulted. The shocking case prompted one councillor to ask the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario to revoke the bar's liquor license."

"Gavin MacMillan, who owns the bar, and Enzo De Jesus Carrasco, the bar's manager, are not permitted to be at or immediately next to the establishment, the city says. MacMillan, 41, is facing charges of forcible confinement, trafficking in schedule substance, failure to comply with recognizance, and four counts of gang sexual assault. Carrasco, 31, is facing charges of forcible confinement, trafficking in schedule substance, four counts of gang sexual assault, and three counts of sexual assault. Both men have been released on bail."

So it's the owner of the bar and an employee that have been charged. Now Toronto is reporting that both men have been charged with drug trafficking in addition to gang rape and forcible confinement.

Man Fatally Stabbed on Stanley Park Seawall in Vancouver

1130 News is reporting that "Vancouver Police say a 61-year-old man stabbed on the Stanley Park seawall last night died at the scene. A person of interest is in custody and police are trying to figure out if that person played a role in the man’s death. The VPD also says it’s too early in the investigation to know whether the killing was random or targeted." CBC is reporting that the body was found between 2nd and 3rd beach.

Sudan Refugees - Update

Turns out that Trumps travel ban affects some NBA players from Sudan. What on earth has he got against Sudan? Netflix has a movie called the Lost Boys of Sudan describing some of the hardhsips many young kids faced fleeing war torn Sudan and coming to America as refugees.

Obviously the Americans can ban whoever they want from visiting their country. I will simply say that is not the type of society I want to live in and that is not the type of society the US Constitution was designed to create. This is why many voters rather have a criminal in office than a lunatic.

I'm going to share a real life story about a family of refugees from Sudan my kids grew up with in Surrey. When my kids were very young we moved back to Surrey for them to start elementary school. The school had a big buddy program where they would pair up an older kid with a younger kid just starting out. They would meet during class time and form a friendship so the younger kid wouldn't feel so scared and had someone older to look out for them on the playground.

My son's big buddie was named Mamoosh. His family were refugees from Sudan and lived in the same complex we did so they continued that friendship after school. Mamoosh had a sister named Mimi who was friends with my daughter. The father was a hard working professional.

Then the day came for Mamoosh and his family to move. My son was heartbroken. When he heard the news I saw the shock on his face. He quickly went home and went to his room to be alone. I noticed the urgency and followed him to see what he was doing. He was sitting in his room weeping. He was very young. He wasn't being a drama queen. He just wanted to be alone and grieve in private the loss of a dear friend. That is how much that friendship meant to him.

I'm not going to entertain conversations that promote hate and intolerance. Like I said, the Americans can ban whoever they want from visiting their country. That is not the type of society I want to live in and that is not the type of society the US Constitution was designed to create.



Update: Turns out Mamoosh's family was from Ethiopia not Sudan but the point remains valid. Diversity makes us strong. "I've seen too much hate to want to hate and every time I see it I say to myself that hate is too great a burden to bear." Martin Luther King

Former Norway PM Detained At Dulles Airport over travel ban

The Huffington Post is reporting that "A stunned former prime minister of Norway complained that he was caught up in the maw of Donald Trump’s controversial executive order and detained this week by border agents at Washington’s Dulles International Airport because he visited Iran in 2014. Kjell Magne Bondevik said that after he landed at Dulles on Tuesday he was herded into a room with a group of travelers from the Middle East and Africa. He was ordered to wait for 40 minutes, then questioned for another 20 after officials spotted a travel stamp on his passport revealing that he had flown to Iran three years ago, reported WJLA-TV. The passport also clearly identified him as a former prime minister of Norway, he said."

Angelina Jolie Comments On Recent Immigrant Ban

The Daily Mail is reporting that Angelina Jolie has written an article in the New York Times about Donald Trump's immigration ban. "'Refugees are men, women and children caught in the fury of war, or the cross hairs of persecution. 'Far from being terrorists, they are often the victims of terrorism themselves', she wrote.

'It is simply not true that our borders are overrun or that refugees are admitted to the United States without close scrutiny. 'Refugees are in fact subject to the highest level of screening of any category of traveler to the United States. 'Targeting the weakest does not show strength'.

Seattle judge blocks Trump immigration order

Reuters is reporting that A federal judge on Friday put a nationwide block on U.S. President Donald Trump's week-old executive order temporarily barring refugees and nationals from seven countries from entering the United States. The White House said late on Friday it believed the ban to be "lawful and appropriate" and said the U.S. Department of Justice would file an emergency motion to stop the judge's order taking effect.

The Seattle judge's ruling takes effect because it considered the broad constitutionality of Trump's order. Robart also explicitly made his ruling apply across the country, while other judges facing similar cases have so far issued orders concerning only specific individuals. Washington Governor Jay Inslee celebrated the decision as a victory for the state, adding: "no person - not even the president - is above the law."

Shooting at a Mosque in Quebec

Notwithstanding the seriousness of the tragedy, I am hesitant to even mention the Mosque shooting in Quebec because I am of the opinion most of these mass shootings are indeed orchestrated. Nevertheless it did happen. Some wack job wing nut went into a mosque in Quebec City Sunday night and started shooting random people. 6 people dead 19 injured. A complete tragedy with no real motive. Guess what, he wasn't a refugee.

Justin Trudeau asked Fox News to take down their false tweet about the Quebec City mosque shooter which claimed one of the shooters was a Moroccan-born Quebecer. Turns out the Moroccan-born Quebecer was a witness not a suspect.

Quebec's premier admitted that the Mosque shooting shows Quebec has its demons. "Xenophobia, racism and exclusion are present here." This is true but is rather baffling. The French Revolution was all about Liberty, Equality and Fraternity. Some have cited that historic pledge in light of the hypocritical quest to ban hijabs in France. Police making a woman remove her Burkini on the beach is obscene.



One blog reader recently sent me a very offensive video of a white Nazi railing on Islam. A woman wearing a hijab started to heckle him and he shouted out You're wearing a hijab in the United States of America. What's wrong with you? At that point I shut the video off. There is nothing wrong with her. That is her right. He is the one with the problem because he doesn't understand or support the US Constitution. That is the real problem.

Kamloops raid turn up empty handed

The Vancouver Province is reporting that Police will return items seized earlier this month during a high-profile raid of a North Shore gym - a search described by the lawyer for the business owner as “egregious” and “unlawful.” Heavily armed Kamloops Mounties and RCMP tactical officers descended on Heavy Metal Gym on Jan. 13. According to City of Kamloops licensing documents, the gym is owned by Konaam Shirzad - described in the past as a co-founder of the Red Scorpions gang. Jeremy Jensen, Shirzad’s lawyer, said police found nothing incriminating at the gym and alleged cops were specifically forbidden from seizing what they did. Jensen said investigators made off with computers and other office equipment.

Shirzad said his gym continues to operate at 145 Briar Ave. “The gym has been open the whole time,” he said. “It was never closed. It is not closed. People should feel free to come here. The only thing to fear is the police and their over-reaction.” Shirzad said police did not find anything illegal in his gym, because he is no longer part of the lifestyle that landed him behind bars in the last decade. “My past got brought up, but I’ve been doing a lot of good lately,” Shirzad said.

The traffic stop and drug seizure that led to the high profile public raid with freaking stun grenades wasn't the owner of the gym it was someone else. I guess I called it.

Surrey drug dealer fatally stabbed at Richmond Hospital

The Peace arch News reported that RCMP are looking for witnesses after a 24-year-old Surrey man died of stab wounds Friday night at Richmond General Hospital. Francis Le was found in the hospital parking lot just after 11:30 p.m. He was being treated when Richmond police arrived, but succumbed to his injuries. Other media outlets referred to him as a Surrey drug dealer.

Kim Bolan reported that "Last April, Le was sentenced to 10 months in jail in Surrey Provincial Court for possession for the purpose of trafficking and one day in jail for extortion with a firearm. His arrest was announced by Surrey RCMP in March 2015, after a 21-month investigation that also netted Sophon Sek."

B.C. fentanyl dealer sentenced to 14 years in prison

CBC is reporting that "A man accused of bearing "personal significant responsibility for hundreds of fentanyl-detected deaths in British Columbia has been given 14 years in prison, in the first major fentanyl-related sentencing in British Columbia since the opioid crisis began."

"Walter James McCormick was sentenced Monday, after an extended trial that centred around the government's desire to create a new sentencing range for fentanyl trafficking, a case in which the Crown was asking for an unprecedented 18-year prison term."

Will Surrey arrest the fentanyl dealers on the Surrey strip now or will they simply use this single scapegoat as a pretense for addressing the problem?

Michelle Obama and Abraham Lincoln

What a freaking mess. Abraham Lincoln used to say stand with any man as long as he stands right but part with him when they go wrong. This is where Donald Trump and I part ways. When the women's marches were protesting the election of Donald Trump it was rather silly because Trump hadn't made any specific policy they were protesting, they were simply protesting the results of a democratic election. Now people are protesting a policy and well they should.

I do not support Donald Trumps executive order on immigration. Period. That's all there is to it. It reminds of that discourse on slavery the brother from Boston wrote called F*ck the South. He recounted the American civl war and said who would want a union with anyone who would fight for the right to have slaves? I have to agree. Likewise, I do not want a union with anyone who practices religious discrimination and opposes a free republic. That's all there is to it. I'm not going to dwell on it. I will simply record my dissent and talk about other things.

I did like Barack Obama. Like Justin Trudeau, he was a nice guy. He was educated and well spoken. My concern with Obama was his misuse of executive privilege to hide Hillary Clinton's arms dealing and drug trafficking in Operation Fast and Furious. That was a criminal act and his misuse of executive privilege made him criminally culpable.

Likewise, while Obama was president Hillary Clinton's arms dealing went wild. She personally profited from selling Russian weapons grade Uranium. She also personally profited from selling ams to ISIS. This is a historical fact.

My concern now is that even some truthers have fallen to the hate and intolerance false flag attacks are designed to create. 911 was an inside job. Someone had to have gone in ahead of time and plant bombs on the load bearing beams so that all three towers would collapse into their own blueprint at freefall speed. That is what the experts in the field of controlled demolition declare. Operation Northwoods was real.

Even Alex Jones who fully understands that President Johnson recalled the air support for the USS Liberty when it was under attack, has fallen to the hate. I have not nor will I.

We were discussing the current conundrum at work and someone mentioned the thought of Michelle Obama becoming president. That is a great idea. Get Hillary to retire and run Michelle. That is a woman I could support. In the mean time, F*ck the South. We will take the high road because that is the type of society that I want to live in. Theirs is not. It really is that simple.

Another Brick in the Wall

I am somewhat concerned about the manufactured emergency Donald Trump's recent executive order on immigration has created banning American residents from returning home mid air. When we were kids they used to run commercials on TV about the Constitution and the process behind how a bill becomes a law. This whole executive order thing sounds very Star Wars to me. In our day we need to shun extremism. Recklessness is not prudent.

Time Magazine recently ran and article citing the hypocrisy of Donald Trumps executive order in relation to the poem inscribed on the Statue of Liberty which reads: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

America was built on immigration. Unless we are First Nations, we are all immigrants. The Pilgrims came here on the Mayflower to escape religious persecution. That is why the constitution was framed. To protect the freedom of religion. Religious discrimination is against the law. It violates the constitution and a free republic.

In our day the Constitution is under attack like never before. I do not support Hillary Clinton at all. She is an arms dealing, money laundering drug dealing criminal. Nor do I support Donald Trump's recent executive order simply because it is illegal. When a newly elected president starts whipping out executive orders at the drop of a hat, that becomes concerning for everyone. That does not represent due process. It just sounds like the man who would be king.

Finian's Dream is the same as Martin Luther King's Dream. Martin Luther King dreamed of the day when the US Constitution would be more than a nice piece of paper hanging on the wall. He dreamed of the day when the constitution would actually be implemented creating a free republic for everyone regardless of race, color or creed. He dreamed of the day when black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing Free at Last, Free at Last, Thank God Almighty, we are Free at Last! That includes Muslims.



If you are going to change something you need to give people notice. Crazy sweeping changes while people are mid air is insane and cruel. Building a brick wall around the Statue of Liberty is counter productive. When you fence people out, you also fence people in.

Canada offers temporary home to those stranded by Trump order

Woman set for deportation attempts suicide at JFK

God Bless Federal judge Ann Donnelly.

Update: The Vancouver Province is reporting that Trump asked Rudy Giuliani for a ‘Muslim ban’ and ordered a commission to do it ‘legally’. Only religious discrimination is against the law. It violates the US Constitution and a free republic.



Rabbi Dan Moskovitz of Temple Shalom speaks as the Concerned Canadian Clergy for Refugees call upon the Canadian Government and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to immediately extend Transit Visas for individuals who have American visa in hand. "In rare unity, Orthodox and liberal denominations are critical of Trumps refugee ban."

Syria Refugees in Surrey

Speaking of the dark side of Donald Trump, this is a tasty treat our Syrian refugee neighbours just sent over. They are wonderful. Welcome to Canada. Diversity makes us strong.

It's like a facebook slogan during the last election. "I don't hate my neighbours. They make me samosas." There is a large Indo Canadian population in Surrey but where I live its totally diverse. Syrian, Asian, Polish and us - British, Scotch Irish. They are all wonderful neighbours.

Richmond Homicide

BC local news is reporting that "RCMP are investigating a Friday night homicide in the 7000 block of Westminster Hwy. in Richmond. According to the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, the homicide appears targeted."

The Dark side of Donald Trump

We've seen the dark side of Hillary Clinton. She has been deeply involved with arms dealing, money laundering and drug trafficking for a generation.

Now Donald Trump has revealed his dark side. I'm not referring to his beef with the CIA. That's a good thing. I'm not even referring to another brick in the wall. I'm referring to his ban on Muslims from certain countries but not Saudi Arabia. People seem to think rich muslims are OK but poor muslims aren't. Yet it goes far beyond that. It is a step towards racial profiling.

With one sweep of the pen, Donald Trump has created a ban on immigrants from seven Muslim countries. It includes a ban on green card holders. As a result, US residents traveling abroad have been denied reentry into the United States. This is evil.

Most of the 911 terrorists came from Saudi Arabia. Their visas were denied and the CIA overruled that decision and brought them in directly. Trumps ban will not help protect America from terrorists. The only way to protect America from terrorists is to ban the CIA.

In contrast, the Hill is reporting that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Saturday responded to President Trump's executive order banning refugees and halting immigration from several countries by welcoming those refugees to Canada. "To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada" Trudeau tweeted. Makes you proud to be Canadian.

Canada should immediately open their borders to these working professionals denied reentry into the US. This is what I meant when I said I don't like Donald Trump as a person but think as a person, Justin Trudeau is a great guy. If there was only some way to balance the extremes. If Justine Trudeau could get his brain around avoiding unnecessary debt he would be perfect. Right now he is all heart and no business sense. Trump is the opposite. He is no heart all business. Humanity calls for a balance between the two. Welcome to Canada: Bienvenue.



Turns out the Trump ban includes Canadians who hold dual citizenship with one of those seven countries. Those Canadians are no longer allowed to enter the United States. Part of me says why would I want to go to a place like that? The other part of me says you guys are really missing out. Diversity makes us strong.

Update: And now the courts fight back to sustain the constitution.

Canada offers temporary home to those stranded by Trump order

The Lunar New Year and the Rise of the Terracotta Warriors

I rode down to Chinatown today to watch the New Years Parade since the Lunar New Year actually falls on a Saturday this year. The place was dead so I pulled over and asked someone where's the parade? They said oh that's on Sunday. My bad. My father always used to say there are three types of people in the world. Those that participate in the parade, those that watch the parade and those that don't even know a parade is on.

I like the Chinese New Year celebrations. Lots of firecrackers, drums and Lion dances. All the noise is supposed to chase off the evil spirits and usher in a New Year. This year is the year of the rooster which seems appropo. This is the year activists claim their right to free speech both in China and here at home. It makes me think of the Terracotta warriors.

Take up our quarrel with the foe to you from failing hands we throw the torch. Be yours to hod on high. If ye break faith with us who die we shall not sleep though poppies grow in Flanders fields. That also applies to the noble Terracotta soldiers. Just for the record, they weren't communist either. China has a magnificent history and culture that predates communism by thousands of years. I've always said that Chinatown is the heartbeat of Vancouver.

In 2014 the Express reported that Filmmakers from Britain, America and China are joining forces to create one of the biggest blockbusters in cinema history, based on the ancient Terracotta Warriors. The warriors are expected to rise from the grave in the Far East to rival Hollywood comic heroes such as Iron Man and Spider-Man." That sounds totally awesome.

The New york Daily News reported that it will be co-produced by "Amazing Spider-Man" producer Avi Arad. I sure hope its still on the table. That has a powerful potential.

Dave Habib steals house from his dead sister's children

In the words of Raiden from Mortal Kombat: Enough! Castanet is reporting that Dave Habib stole his dead sister's home from her children right after she died of cancer. That is as low as anyone can go. Evidently his "ex" wife teamed up with him to do the dirty deed.

So now she's an ex. The money's gone and so is that beautiful bride. I aint saying she's a gold digger but the records of the court did. She's not so pretty now is she? Makeup can never hide the ugly face of greed. What's worse is that a judge of the court denied Sally's children from postponing their eviction notice until after the hearing. There is no justice in that.

This is why judges need to be publicly accountable. The public pay their wages. They're just civil servants. The public elect the governments that create the laws the judges are supposed to uphold. As the Aldergrove judicial Review Board declares, bad decisions make judges accomplices to crime. Infotel has also picked up on the story.

Two of Dave's brothers, Sam and Mike, were charged in a $ 3 million Oxycontin fraud. Sam was sentenced in 2015. Dave's other brother is no longer a gang member. He used to be the president of the Kingpin Crew but they were disbanded after Joey Verma was charged with the murder of Brittney Irving. Dave Habib's connection to the Kelowna Hells Angels came directly from the Liquid Zoo. Every crime has a means and a motive. We must ask ourselves what is the real motive for this crime? Greed? Without question but on whose part? It doesn't take a brain surgeon to do the math. A lot of people are fed up with the Kelowna Hells Angels. Finish them.



Operation Deep Freeze is now in effect.

China's crackdown on human rights lawyers

Gong Hey Fat Choy. As we kick off the lunar New Year let's take a look and Communist China's crackdown on human rights lawyers. Amnesty International is reporting that "It’s been one year since China began its assault on human rights lawyers and activists across the country on 9 July 2015. In all, 248* lawyers and activists were questioned by police, detained or charged in the unprecedented sweep." Let's name the prisoners and track them.

The Guardian is reporting that Human rights attorney Xie Yang says he was shackled, beaten and threatened, in transcripts released in protest at his continued incarceration. So why all the smoke and mirror distractions about Russia when communist China is torturing human rights lawyers as we speak and murdering political prisoners to order for organ harvesting. This is serious.

10 Years: A look at Hong Kong in 2025

Turns out that the familiar term Gong Hey Fat Choy is Cantonese not Mandarin. Cantonese is spoken in Hong Kong and has been banned by mainland China after the take over. Communist China has also banned the award winning film 10 Years which gives a dark look at Hong Kong's future under Communist rule. It's worth watching. Now China is banning two elected lawmakers in Hong Kong because they won't swear allegiance to Communist China. Time for us to wake up.

One aspect of the movie explains self immolation. I oppose that practice because it is self defeating. Going on a hunger strike against Adolf Hitler wouldn't work. He'd just laugh and say one less to worry about. The same with Stalin or Chairman Mao. In addition to that self immolation assists Communist China's propaganda war. China falsely accuses the Falun Gong of self immolation. They say don't listen to them those people are crazy. They cut themselves and commit suicide. Outsiders looking in have to agree. Sadly, most people think the Tibetan monks that set themselves on fire in protest are crazy. That sacrifice is lost in the translation.



The Year of the rooster has now begun.

Shooting in Surrey results in another fatality

The Surrey now is reporting that A man was found dead in a vehicle in Newton Thursday night roughly one hour before a drive-by shooting in Whalley. "We can't confirm they are related," Corporal Meghan Foster, spokeswoman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, told the Now. "It is unknown if this homicide is linked to other recent shootings."

Surrey Mounties were called to the 7400-block of Sinclair Crescent just after 8 p.m. after someone found Maple Ridge resident Hershan "Shawn" Bains, age 36, "unresponsive" in his vehicle. IHIT deemed his death a "targeted" homicide. Foster said it's not yet known if this shooting is linked to the "targeted" shooting death of Karanpartap Waraich, 22, who was shot several times before crashing his SUV into the golden arches sign at the McDonald's in Cedar Hills on Monday night, Jan. 23.

There had also been a shooting on Friday, Jan. 20th in Newton, in the 8000-block of Scott Road, where police recovered bullets and bullet casings near an unoccupied vehicle. Meantime, about an hour after Bains was found, multiple gunshots were fired from a white pickup truck at a white Mercedes sedan in Whalley Thursday night, in the 12300-block of 91A Avenue.

That makes eight shots-fired incidents confirmed by the Surrey RCMP so far this month.

Norway Rock Machine members arrested for murder of Bandido prospect

TBM Scandinavia is reporting that three Rock Machine members in Norway have been arrested for the murder of a 31 year old who appears to have been a Bandidos prospect. Bandidos opened a prospect chapter in Norway in 2015 and have a chapter is Oslo. Here in Canada you don't normally see beef between the Rock Machine and the Bandidos. This conflict is new.

Evidently the Rock Machine in Russia had a large number of them patch over to Mongols and it has seemed to have created hard feelings. I guess that's why they're worried about losing some of their members to the Bandidos in Norway.

The Rock Machine is originally from Canada and right now it is a complete mess. Consequently it appears that mess is carrying over to international locations since they are determined to expand without a solid leadership base at home.

In the Begining Mom Boucher and Salvatore Cazzetta created an MC in Quebec called the SS. Mom Boucher wanted to become a member of the Hells Angels but after the Lennoxville massacre, Salvatore said f*ck that and started the Rock Machine. Mom Boucher didn't care about the betrayal of the Laval chapter. He saw it as an opportunity to promote himself so that's exactly what he did. Mom Boucher and Biff Hamel joined the Hells Angels after the Dark Riders betrayal also in Laval. Boucher got his Hells Angels patch after getting out of prison for armed rape.

Over the years the Quebec Hells Angels and the Rock Machine waged a war over drug turf. The Hells Angels wanted a monopoly on the drug trade and the Rock Machine said no. It has been alleged that Mom Boucher maintained an alliance with the Rock Machine during this period of time and many of the Hells Angels who were killed by the Rock Machine were political opponents of Mom Boucher who used that war as an opportunity to promote himself within the organization.

Right before Mom Boucher went to jail for planning the murder of a prison guard, his old friend Salvatore Cazzetta along with the remaining founding members of the Rock Machine crossed over and became Hells Angels in what appeared to be an attempt to maintain Mom Boucher's political interests in the Quebec Hells Angels. After crossing over, Salvatore became president of the Montreal chapter of the Hells Angels. After that, the Rock Machine died.

A few years ago Sean Brown and a group of people not related to the original Rock Machine started a new MC with the same name. Sean Brown changed the logo from a yellow or gold eagle's head to a white one. He didn't want to war with the Hells Angels in Quebec so the new kids on the block kicked him out. They wanted to be a gang. They had no interest in forming a MC. Ever since then the Rock Machine in Canada has been a mess. He's in, he's out. He never was in. Yes he was, no he wasn't. It is a complete mess. The original Rock Machine is lost.

It's too bad. They have the best logo.

Abbotsford shooting

BC Local News is reporting that Two men showed up at hospital tonight (Tuesday) with gunshot wounds after a chaotic incident that also involved a two-car crash. Abbotsford Police Sgt.

Shortly after, police received several calls indicating that two vehicles had crashed in the area of Peardonville and Clearbrook roads.

Langley teen murdered over drugs

Postmedia News is reporting that "Three young men who pleaded guilty to the grisly murder of a Langley teen who had been their friend have been sentenced to life in prison with no parole eligibility for 18 years."

"Connor Angus Campbell, Bradley Michael Flaherty and Keith William Tankard, all of who were 19 years old when they carried out a sophisticated and co-ordinated plan to kill fellow 19-year-old Nicholas Hannon in February 2014, entered their pleas to second-degree murder prior to a sentencing hearing in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver on Monday."

The court heard evidence claiming that all tfour friends had been dealing drugs. Tankard wanted to withdraw from his drug dealing but was afraid to do so and approached Campbell and Flaherty for their assistance, and this was the origin of the murder plot, according to an agreed statement of facts read out in court by Crown counsel Bob Wright. What a crock of shit that is.

Three big guys were afraid of one small guy. Yeah right. Agreed statement of facts between whom? The three murderers and the Crown? I guess the one they killed wasn't able to testify. That lie fails the test of believability. The three guys felt intimidated by the one so they killed him? Highly unlikely. The first question is who were they selling drugs for? It wasn't the UN so it must have been you know who. That leaves us to ask which puppet club? Was it the 856? That would implicate Lenny the weasel. They same guy that got Bob Green killed.

If Tankard wanted to stop selling drugs the only one he would be afraid of is their supplier. If the guy they killed was linked to their supplier, they would not have killed him out of fear of retaliation. The only plausible conclusion is that the guy they killed was the one that wanted to get out and they were empowered to kill him by their supplier to shut him up. That is believable. The fraudulent statement of facts is not. This was a plea deal. It is not the truth.

B.C.'s credit rating at risk as Hydro's debt grows

The Vancouver Sun is reporting that "A top investment firm continues to sound alarm bells about B.C. Hydro‘s finances, saying the Crown electricity provider’s rising debt level is a risk to B.C.’s credit rating." No kidding. Christy Clark's fudge it budgets are finally starting to catch up with her.

Lest we forget what created the ballooning deferred debt and turned B Hydro from a tax revenue cash cow to a complete Enron fraud. That was Gordon Campbell and the BC Liberals. They privatized the power brokers that sell power to the public company at above market rates. That was a criminal act that needs to be rectified this election before the tsunami drowns us all.

Women's rights misrepresented

I find it mildly amusing that the anti Trump camp are hiding under the umbrella of women's rights. There's been a few women's rights marches denouncing the election of Donald Trump. Trump's response was simple. Why didn't they vote? Oh they did. I'll be the first one to admit that I don't like Trump as a person. His locker room banter is childish. Unfortunately it's common. That certainly doesn't make it right. It just makes the anti Trump camp complete hypocrites for trying to claim his election in any way violates women's rights.



Donald Trump is no different than Bill Clinton or Newt Gingrich. Speaking of Mr. Bill, did you see Hillary catch him checking out Ivanka at the inauguration? It was priceless.



Even the mighty Obama himself had wandering eyes.



We know that more than Sarkozy's eyes wandered during his tenure. What were all these women's rights protesters saying about Bill Clinton and Newt Gingrich's infidelities? Oh they weren't protesting infidelity, they were protesting childish locker room banter. Really?

Ultimately, Madonna was the one that took the cake. What the hell is Madonna doing speaking at a march for women's rights? She is the one who made a career out of demeaning women.

Madonna said she is really angry that Donald Trump was elected. In fact she's so angry she feels like blowing up the white house. Oh really. Now we know that wasn't a threat and we know she was simply expressing her anger but what was she really angry about? Was she really angry about women's rights or was she really angry about something else?

So what is the protest really about then? What country has Donald Trump invaded or what policy has he created that's so offensive? Well he hasn't yet but just you wait. So you're not protesting a policy he made or a country he invaded, you are protesting the fact that he won the election and that your candidate lost? Really? Is that what this is all about? Get over it.

Gun owners like Donald Trump. Gun owners don't like Hillary Clinton. This election wasn't about women's rights. It was about arms dealing and drug trafficking. The CIA are upset their candidate lost and are spamming the media with nonsense because they are facing budgets cuts and well they should. They shouldn't even be operating on US soil. Move forward. Ignore the CIA.



I will add that although Madonna campaigned for Hillary and has a history of being trashy as hell, she was absolutely magnificent in Evita when she sang Don't Cry for me Argentina. That was the classiest role she ever played. Now she's promoting Hillary's arms dealing and drug trafficking. Pitty. Hillary Clinton is no Eva Perón.

Madonna has completely lost it. She claims women betrayed us by voting for Donald Trump. She claims “Women hate women. That’s what I think it is.” I think Madonna needs some time with Dr. Phil. She's on a women's march against women who voted for Trump. Now that is conflicted.



Update: The Toronto Sun is reporting that "modern feminism is no longer an inclusive movement to protect and improve the lives of all women. These leftist feminists have shown their true colours. They’ve demonstrated that feminism isn’t about women, it’s about politics – where a feminist man, even a violent one, comes ahead of a conservative woman."
